I think you will find that the rabbit chews to keep his teeth in good shape, sharp and not too long! The rabbit next door chews my wooden fence regularly

Yep, my bun will gnaw on anything, the metal bars of his run is his favourite, that or the door to my shed

Ive given him all the lovely bark and carrot shaped wood things, but he prefers the shed!

I've found the sun dried corn on the cob keeps my rabbit busy, as recommended by shortbackandsides.

Also, you can get large cardboard or hay tubes - depending on the size of your rabbit, they can either use it as a tunnel or a meal!!
